A full fledged, though compact, deck capable of connecting to a PC using netMD. Unlike the MDS-NT1, it actually has on-device controls and a display, and comes bundled with the RM-D10P remote (other MD remotes from the same time period will also work). Supports Scale Factor Edit.

Works without issue on modern Windows 10 PCs using web/platinum minidisc. You can also use it with the old SonicStage and OpenMG programs using the 64bit drivers.
